A Study on Utilization of Concrete cloth

Abstract

This paper reviews the Utilization of concrete cloth in Civil Engineering field. It comprises the important findings from the experimental works of many researchers. To overcome through the drawback of non flexible property of concrete. a new construction material was developed by British Engineering Company called Concrete Canvas. Concrete cloth is a flexible; cement impregnated fabric that hardens when hydrated to form a thin, durable, water & fire proof concrete layer. CC allows concrete construction without the need for plant or mixing equipment. Simply position the canvas & just add water. CC has a design life of above 10 years and is significantly quicker and less expensive to install compared to conventional concrete.
